Ever wanted to be a sports team owner? Now you can. The Oakland Roots and Soul Sports Club is inviting community members to invest and own a part of the team.
A community round will open for anyone 18 years or older to "directly participate in [the team] success."
"It’s part of the fabric. Part of what makes us, ‘us.’ It’s where we come together to celebrate the best of who we are. It’s how we tell our own story - and not how others define us. It’s jobs, opportunity, a stage, a dream. It’s how we plant our Roots, and nourish our Soul," Oakland Roots said in a statement.There will be multiple tiers for fans to invest in the organization.
"Sports Teams are a community asset and as a Purpose driven organization it was always on our minds, It was just a matter of when," said Tommy Hodul, senior vice president of Public Relations and Communications of the Oakland Roots and Sports Club. Being a fan isn't required to be a part-owner to participate; just believing in their vision and mission.
